Moody Forest Natural Area is an irreplaceable, one-of-a-kind treasure. One of the nation's last remaining old-growth forest featuring longleaf pines 200-300 years old and mammoth tupelo cypress more than 600 years old. The forest is also home to rare plants, birds, and animals, including the endangered red-cockaded woodpecker, the gopher tortoise and the eastern indigo snake.

The preserve has been opened to the public, providing the opportunity for thousands of visitors to explore one of Georgia's most unique and beautiful landscapes.

Two interpretive trails (download trail maps) curl through the preserve, offering more than five miles of year-round hiking-and the chance to spot rare and imperiled species like gopher tortoises and Eastern indigo snakes.
